  I have been in contact with the company making the frame grabber for the
 Amiga A**2 ( 'A' squared systems in Okland Calif.) Thier developers boards
 can be used in all of the Amiga's graphics modes. They are not sure about 
 the final board that will be released. They are still doing the board
 layout, and are hoping that everything will fit. If not, they will cut
 back. But I think they will cut down on the screen res, not the pixel depth
 (number of colors). I am getting a developers board and will post news
 when I get it and/or get more info.
